stay right there. there are those who say we cannot defeat a corrupt political system and fix a rigged economy. but i believe we need to lift our vision above the obstacles in place and look to the american horizon. to a nation where every child can not only dream of going to college, but attend one. where quality healthcare will be a birthright of every citizen. where a good job is not a wish, but a reality. where women receive equal pay and a living wage is paid to all. an america where after a lifetime of labor, there is time for rest and grandchildren. a nation that defends our people and our values, but no longer carries so much of that burden alone.

if we listen to our conscience and our hearts and not to the pundits and the naysayers. i'm bernie sanders. i approve this message,

we will be right back. $18.9 billion, that's how much experts estimate americans spent on retail last year for valentine's day. the holiday of love has many people kissing their money goodbye. will you be guilty of doing the same this weekend? joins us to explain are nick strobelt and abe ashton from ashton strobelt. gentlemen, hello. >> happy to be here. >> they wanted to brag about their socks. >> we feel like we got a gentleman's game going. you came out swinging. >> they're pink. you can't beat that unless --

big to beat pink and grey stripes. you would have to do something like, you know, maybe possibly darth vader. take. and i'm willing to go there in order to win. >> you get that as a valentine's day gift? >> not yet. i got a whole different pair that i'm going to get for valentine. >> $18.9 billion? >> small amount of money. $18.9 billion. >> that's a lot. >> do you want to put it in contrast? let's take about what $19 billion essentially is. the entire proposed budget for nasa, okay? this is -- we just came out yesterday, the budget for -- $19 billion, or the purchase of whatsapp by facebook was than that. the entire budget for cyber security for the government, that's what president obama just asked for, was $19 billion to

day. we now sell roses instead ofncial advice. from one person. when they break it down by per person it's about $140. >> everybody spends a little bit. dollar. >> people seem to by into it that you have to do it. what are your thoughts on that? >> you know, older folks typically spend less on valentine's day than younger folks. the younger folks, 35 and 44, are usually ones spending the most on valentine's day. those 65 and older tend to less than half of them really celebrate valentine's day. >> they realize it's just a day. >> it's just a day. but at the same time it's good to be frying, which is, of course, you know beneficial, but it's also important to take care of the ones you care most about your spouse, your significant other, things like that. and so there is a good balance to make sure that people are getting treated well. but what we find financially

older you are, typically the less money you spend. as you approach retirement. 55-year-old will spend more than a 75-year-old. just because that's nature, they don't want to go out as much, don't want to spend as much money ongoing to movies and things like that. >> people that have been married for 40 years are saying hey, listen, she is stuck with me at this point. >> what are flower going to do at this point. >> and it's something to be said, you can do something special for your sweetie and not necessarily break the bank doing it. >> yeah. think of anything right now, except for maybe you can go on television and look right in the camera's eyes and say sweetheart, i love you, thank you for being my valentine, you are the girl of my dreams and the best thing that ever happened to me but other than that i can't think of anything that you can do that wouldn't

>> rewind on the dvr. i mean, for people that are older, not only you know, not that the romance is dead but they've done the dates, they go more relaxed but some people are on limited budget. >> most women will tell men it's the thought that counts, and we as men have a hard time believing that because we're so monetarily driven, right? we view so much of what we earn and what we spend and what we drive and what we have, and most women will tell us no it's about the feeling, that's why a note from their child means so much to them. and we can't really quantify that value, but i have seen with my wife and other women who have shared their stories, especially retired people we meet with, and a gentleman is really showing heartfelt affection and thinking about their spouse, it goes farther than whatever dollar may purchase anyway. and so that's what we need to remember is them, that our

is saying buy me diamonds. >> wow. you guys are -- >> right. our sisters i tease them quite a bit. the point is you can get even more mileage being heartfelt and sincere as spending a few hundred dollars on whatever it is the rose or the chocolate of the day. >> if you're in it for the long haul a great gift is the gift of sound financial plan, isn't it? >> it really is. we find that -- we have client appreciation dinner this past week, where folks came in and what they wanted to hear about at the client appreciation dinner, which was hey, what happens and how do we protect our spouses even when we're gone? i say that's very romantic. we're talking about valentine's day and we're going to kill one of the spouses for the conversation. what happens for social security survivor benefits. how do iras get inherited. how does it work when we transition from one spouse to a surviving spouse?

is for those people that figure that is their most important goal when they're worried about transitions and making sure their loved ones are taken care of after they're gone. >> quickly let's talk about your portfolio reviews and what you offer. >> this is a great time. the portfolio is -- review is for anyone that might be concerned over what their portfolio is doing how it's holding up in today's current market. it might be a time to reevaluate where your positions are. this review is helpful for you if you're just wanting to get a good sense of lou protected you are and what you are currently invested in. and so it's a great review just to get yourself setup right for retirement. >> there is a lot of broken hearts today with the market down again. wives are saying why are we in the market, we're so close to retirement? we can show them a more conservative option. you don't have to gamble your money. >> we have to go but i'm going to let them know about something they can take advantage of.

make this valentine's day one you and your partner will never forget. >> micah discovered how to keep the romance flowing. micah. >> dao and shawn, thanks. valentine's day is romantic time of year. you want to show someone you really care. blossom your relationship this year and joining us with ideas for couples is dr. chris donaghue. good morning. >> good morning. how are you? >> i'm doing well.

morning, and with valentine's day right around the corner, we want to be romantic, so how do we do so? >> preparation. you know, valentine's day is that one day out of the year where you really get to show your partner or your other that they're important to you. please prepare. i think there is nothing worse than trying to pull together last minute because it feels that way. don't just try to last minute pull whatever you have around the house together. it's about experience. did he. >> i know once you're in relationship longer you can tell the signs of if someone is planning the whole last-minute deal, so you're not going to get away with it. >> yeah, please don't try to do that. there's nothing worse than that. we have really busy lives and this is the one day you're allowed to set everything aside and just make it about romance, so do that. and i love the idea of doing things at home. i think going out for valentine's day can be nice, but it can be distracting. at home, you can control the entire environment.

senses. so number one, turn off all your technology, put your phone down, turn off the computer, the tv, because it's all about making it just a quiet, romantic, the two of us only kind of scenario. also food. and these days it's all prepped for us. go get one of those premade food companies where it's all the ingredients put together, and you can make it with your partner, and you can turn that into part of the date where we're going to cook together or cook it beforehand. but it's also about doing what you have to do that makes you feel kind of romantic. so i say for the women, bath oils, perfume, whatever you do that is different, because this is a different day. and for guys, there's products that can help them where they can get more confidence, they can feel more passionate and pleasure for the day. and it's also about visuals. so turn the lights down, get candles, just focus on the environment, because again it's about not thinking about anything else.

should we maybe play some tunes in the background to kind of set the mood a little bit? >> absolutely. absolutely. i want full environment where you are taken away from anything else that's happening and not thinking about anything else. music is important. and again, we have spotify, we have our ipods. but on some kind of play list that will be slow, romantic, sexual, because again it's about you and this other person, and really taking that night to connect with them. >> i know you want us to put away the electronics but what about watching a romantic movie? >> absolutely. romantic comedies are good. it can definitely set the mood, make it more romantic. i recommend watching that beforehand. romantic comedies have really good ideas, adorable scenarios that you can mimmick and create yourself. maybe watch beforehand or google

scenes and try to recreate that. it's one day out of the year. >> and the countdown is on, the deadline is coming up just a few days away. >> yes. it's coming up. so start planning something, because again it's not about you, it's about the other person. so do something so they walk away knowing you cared. >> any other tips you can give us this morning whether it be for first time couples or couple trying to reignite the flame? >> yeah, that's a good question, because i think no matter if it's a new relationship or older relationship, it's still a beautiful, powerful day to say i care. for couples that have been together for a long time it's really easy to let that go and think you don't need that, don't have to do that, and say my husband, my wife, they know i love them, i don't want to do this. yes, you do. it's easy to forget those things. and we're so busy, we forget to sit down quietly, forget to hold

make eye contact and that's what this day is about. take advantage of valentine's day. >> great tips this morning. dr. donaghue, thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> make this valentine's day a romantic one. you only have a couple days left. details and more information can be found on the website right there on your screen. dao and shawn i hope you plan something special for your significant others. >> i certainly have something going on, that's for sure. thank you so much, micah. making plans for valentine's day, how about a romantic tasting experience at ethel m. >> this might be the one for you. we go to that experience where guests will learn how chocolates are made. you're going to experience different varieties of specialty ethel m chocolates. take a look at the tasting room place mat that you'll receive where you can fill in your sensory experience. you're going to receive an ethel m chocolate certificate upon completion of the experience. >> book your experience now through february 14th.
